A presentation and signing of Rock Steady, the newest book by Seattle cartoonist and bipolar spokesperson Ellen Forney. The event will take place on Monday, April 30, 2018, at 7pm in the Microsoft Auditorium at Central Library (1000 4th Avenue Seattle 98104) in partnership with Fantagraphics Books. Local author and journalist David Schmader will act as moderator.
In the follow up to her acclaimed Marbles, Forney writes and draws a self-help guide to maintaining stability with a mood disorder.
Rock Steady: Brilliant Advice From My Bipolar Life is the eagerly awaited sequel/ companion book to Forney’s 2012 best-selling graphic memoir, Marbles: Mania, Depression, Michelangelo, and Me. Whereas Marbles was a memoir about her bipolar disorder, Rock Steady turns the focus outward, offering a self-help survival guide of tips, tricks and tools by someone who has been through it all and come through stronger for it.
